Overview

Worlds into Words, Essays in the History of Words organizes worlds of words in 122 essays. Since words recreate the world, the essays recreate the world by treating creative words in eleven essays, the five elements in twenty-four essays, time in seven essays, the five senses and their organs in ten essays, and kin, kindness and character in ten essays, etc. Singly and all together, the essays bring together the conceptual frameworks of our world. Following words creating their worlds, the essays examine fundamental verbal images and their constellations of meaning so basic that we take them for granted. From simplicity to complexity, they point out the many-layered stories that arise from simple words.
